Frequently asked questions
Is the material safe for sensitive nasal tissue?
Yes, these buttons are crafted from soft, medical-grade silicone. This material is specifically chosen for its:
- High biocompatibility to ensure patient safety.
- Soft texture to provide maximum comfort during use.
Is the product delivered ready for immediate clinical use?
Yes. Every button is supplied sterile and is ready for use directly from the packaging. Please note that these are intended for single-use only to maintain hygiene standards.
How many sizing options are available?
To accommodate a wide range of clinical conditions and patient anatomies, the buttons are available in three distinct sizes:
- Small
- Medium
- Large
Is there a specific way to track the trimming process?
Only the largest size (7cm) features integrated trim indicator rings. These visual guides are etched into the silicone to assist clinicians in making precise, uniform adjustments to the flange diameter.
Does the silicone design offer high clinical comfort?
Yes, these devices are crafted from medical-grade silicone, which is highly valued for its biocompatibility and gentle touch. The key comfort benefits include:
- Soft Flexibility: The material is designed to be soft against sensitive tissue, promoting better patient compliance.
- Low-Profile Fit: The one-piece design features flexible flange leaves that conform comfortably while maintaining secure positioning.
- Symptom Reduction: By creating a barrier over the perforation, it actively reduces common irritants like whistling, crusting, and nosebleeds.
Does the design prevent it from shifting?
The device utilizes a one-piece construction featuring two flange “leaves.” This specialized design is engineered to ensure secure placement within the nasal septal perforation, minimizing the risk of movement once positioned by a clinician.
Can I adjust the size for a better fit?
Absolutely. The buttons are designed to be easily trimmed by clinical staff.
For added precision, the largest size (7cm) includes convenient trim indicator rings on the surface to help you achieve the exact fit required for an individual’s anatomy.
Is the material comfortable for long-term wear?
The use of soft medical-grade silicone is specifically intended to prioritize patient comfort. This flexibility allows the device to adapt to the nasal environment, reducing irritation often associated with more rigid materials.
Which specific symptoms does this device help manage?
These nasal septal buttons are highly effective at reducing or eliminating several chronic symptoms, including:
- Chronic crusting and rhinorrhea
- Epistaxis (nosebleeds)
- Whistling sounds during breathing
- Headaches
- General breathing difficulties
Are these suitable for post-surgical care?
They are ideal for otolaryngology clinical applications. Their design is well-suited for both:
- Post-surgical management of the septum.
- Long-term chronic perforation care.
